HIGH VACUUM FURNACE

Maximum operating temperature: 2.500 ºC

Secondary Vacuum up to 10-6 mbar

Atmospheres: Vacuum, Inert or Reducing

It’s a cold wall furnace, with cylindrical water cooled vessel

and windows for visualisation. The sample introduction in

the hot zone is made by a “linear motion feedthrough”, so

that the sample can be quickly brought down producing a

fast cooling rate.

The heating element is in tungsten wire or tungsten mesh

and the protection shields are in tungsten and

molybdenum.

The vacuum is achieved by a rotary pump and a diffusion

or turbo molecular pump.
